Derby Talk

Derby Talk is a forum for Pinewood Derby, Awana Grand Prix, Kub Kar Rally, Shape N Race Derby, Space Derby, Raingutter Regatta and other similar races where a child and an adult work together to create a race vehicle and a lot of fun and memories

Last Saturday my friend raced on a 3 Lane wood Piantedosi track. The middle lane was mis-aligned near the bottom of the hill. He was running a 3 wheel rail rider. His car did a little dance when hitting the mis-alignment and kept on going. One car was knocked off the track while the other cars were bouncing and taking a beating. No one stopped the race to fix the track. He easily won the race but the beautiful part of this is the car appears to have suffered no damage. Our District Race is not until March 12th. As soon as this cold weather breaks he will bring his car to my house and we'll see if he is still turning the time he did before his Pack Race. This could have been a catastrophe had he set the DFW with Negative Cant.
